It never fails me, no matter how “easy” I try to make the wordpress upgrades with SVN and supllying my own repos there’s always something that goes wrong.
This time when setting up my sites with my own wordpress repo that I apply updates to I mistakingly overwrote the wp-contents folder, taking it out of checkout and then resulting in the svn update to bomb when it got to that folder.
It shouldn’t have been a big deal, just delete the folder…
If you ever get an error like this,
$ svn import /home/user/repos/new file:///home/svn/repos/default/ -m “initial”
svn: Unable to open an ra_local session to URL
svn: Unable to open repository ‘file:///home/svn/repos/default’
after an svn import it’s because, like me, you’re lame. The syntax is wrong and should look like this,
$ svn import /home/svn/repos/default/ file:///home/user/repos -m “initial import”
Notice the source is first then the repo you want to import to. Doh!
I think I’ve finally finished getting all of my themes and plugins straightened out on my site. It turns out Trac isn’t very user friendly when it comes to getting people to download. I ended up using a downloads plugin to help manage the downloads through wordpress itself. At least this way I don’t have to worry about having beta or bleeding edge updates on the main trunk where people would download them. One problem I’m having is svn is…
After finally setting up Trac and SVN on my new server I’ve moved all my projects off Google Code hosting. But instead of checking in all of the code to the new repositories I updated all of the theme and plugin pages. So the problem, you’ll not be able to download anything until tonight when I get around to updating the repositories. Unless you just want to head over to GCode (link above) where all the latest versions are, plugins…
So I finally accomplished getting Trac and SVN setup on my machine but now I’m confused. I’m supposed to setup a trac for every project I have? I’m about to use just one repository for all of my projects and have trac use that, I don’t care too much about the wiki and such just the “browse” and “diff” capabilities. How do you manage multiple projects? [Link] (0)
I’m officially on MediaTemple right now. I’m just waiting for the system to be flushed of Plesk, a few IPs and root access and I’m ready to run a few rsync scripts and I’ll be out of the gates. My goals after I’m completely settled are: Setup SVN and Trac, then either do an rsync backup to home or an rsync to S3. I’d like the later but it might be nice to have a backup at home instead.

Went ahead and posted a very long how-to on SVN, Trac, Apache and Fedora. Thanks Google! [Link] (0)
For some reason or another I could not find good documentation on installing Subversion and Trac on fc6 while also using Apache so I’ve simply just documented what I’ve learned and just implemented on my own system.
This tutorial is about the installation of a development enviroment on FC6 it’s not a how-to for using it. If you need to know more I recommend reading Version Control with Subversion (I just ordered it).
Requirements
You need to install these packages before we start…
Setting up SVN on my fedora core 6 server and everything was fine up until basic_auth, which somehow doesn’t like what I’ve done or trying to do. And this is supposed to be the easiest part. [Link] (0)
I just updated a few of my wordpress plugins. The first is ‘Add RSS’, which adds more RSS feeds for browser detection by default. A really cool option is adding per-post comment RSS feeds. The second is ‘AJAX CSS Switcher’ and it uses UDASS which is a “The Unobtrusive Degradable Ajax Style Sheet Switcher”. Hat tip to @photomatt for getting me the SVN setup on these new plugins.
